It Is Legal for an NPC Who Is Being Oppressed To Run Away

20 – NPCs in the changed world (4)

The date with my brother was a success.

One skewer, pretty ornaments. Ira’s smile and…

“Why take such crap when it ends well.”

“Hey, wait!! Dig, arm!! Broken arm!! Let go!! aaah!!!”

Ira, who said he wanted to walk, was holding the hand, but a man reluctantly entered between us. I deliberately let go of Ira’s hand for a while, and sure enough, I reached for Ira’s necklace.

If I had just pulled it off, Ira’s neck would have been seriously injured, right? therefore.

– Fast.

“Quaaagh!!!”

“Huh? What is it? What’s wrong, mister? You asked me to let it go, so you let it go.”

The people around him can only hear the sound of his tongue clicking, as if the man looks like he’s trying hard.

yes i let it go I pulled my arm a little harder and stepped on my shoulder and let it go.

Of course, I don’t know how many people saw my actions, but I just let go of my arms as I wanted.

And not long after.

“Hmm. Habitual pickpocket, confirmed. Thank you.”

“He was a repeat offender. I didn’t know.”

“Okay, here’s the reward.”

“Thank you.”

“That’s what we have to say. Have a nice trip.”

“Yes. Hope you all have a hard time too.”

The security guard heard the commotion and came running, and when I testified that he was a pickpocket targeting the necklace around my brother’s neck, they immediately checked my wanted list and identity and gave me a bounty. 8,000 cans isn’t bad.

“Ira, I got it.”

“hehehehe. Caught!”

Of course, before pulling out the man’s shoulder, Ira played hide-and-seek, and she hugged her younger brother, who was cutely closing his eyes by himself.

Me indeed. What would you do if such a cute kid got a neck injury? Can’t you discern that much? I really wanted to pull out my throat, but I held back.

I went back to the inn with Ira, and there.

“Turn it off!!!”

[……]

“What are you doing?”

“Ah, Jack! Isn’t this golem too strong?! It won’t budge!!”

I saw the NPC Rey holding Gor’s arm and arm wrestling. hahahaha, a raid after two days with this kid? Is he really okay?

“Huh? Miss Ira, you bought a lot of accessories, right? Jack is wearing a lot of things too.”

“I need to take care of something now. I’ll also take care of the armor later.”

“Huh? What are you taking care of?”

“What do you need? It’s an accessory for growth and protection.”

“…Huh? For protection, what?”

“huh?”

When I said something, she tilted her head as if she didn’t know what I was talking about.

what? You yourself are wearing a ring and a bracelet. Is that also a stat growth item?

“Huh? This and this? Are these just things I had at home?”

“…Oh, that’s right.”

Judging by her reaction, it might be that people in this world don’t have any knowledge about rings or accessories that raise their stats.

Is this something very important?

“Is that ring and bracelet enchanted with something?”

“What do you think?”

“Um… can’t you feel anything?”

“Do you know how to use magic?”

“No. But, I could feel something just by looking at magic swords and orbs used by wizards.”

“But, I can’t feel anything from this accessory, right?”

“yes.”

hmm. I heard this is good If you’re lucky after the raid is over, you might be able to get a lot of things easily.

I told Rey that I would join the raid two days later.

“Then, in the meantime, Miss Ira…”

“Of course I’m looking at the house at the inn.”

“Yeah! I’m looking at the house!”

“Are you okay by yourself?”

“Yeah. My brother said he’d come quickly and buy me some skewers!”

“…how! You’re nice!!”

Ray approached Ira with open arms, and Ira’s Dodo, who had been responding vigorously until just now, ran away and hid behind Gor. Heh, my brother’s guard must be hard to break through, right?

“Hi-ing. I hope that Miss Ira will call me unnie soon!!”

“I don’t like it! Ajumma is ajumma!”

“Hey, choose?”

“Aunt Gordo! Aunt Gordo!!”

[no. Please tell me that you are not an auntie.]

I laughed heartily at my imposing sister playing with a woman and a golem. After arriving at Aigram, I should think about leveling Ira. I am anxious about leaving it alone at an inn forever.

Today’s pickpocket alone was enough to break Ira’s arm alone if he reached level 20.

It must be bizarre to see a little girl break a grown man’s arm, but I hate to see my sister hurt or hurt.

Sangtae Chang sees me and rushes, blocking Ray’s choice and representing Ira’s refusal. Looking at such a heartwarming scene, I felt simple happiness.

“What do you mean?! We lost again?! Now we’re completely wiped out?!!”

“Your Majesty. Please fix it.”

“Did I really look like me now?! All the troops sent to recover the territory were wiped out, wiped out!! Even the Royal Palace Knights went out to recover the territory, but I was defeated and only 1/3 came back. Do I really look like myself now!! “

“…Your Majesty. The public sentiment and the eyes of the neighboring countries are already not very good. Even if it means giving away the territory to the Empire, we must get support and drive out the monster parade.”

“Now, now!! This land with 500 years of history!! Are you saying we should hand it over to that empire?!”

The monster parade started at Mount Ponia. Instead of decreasing in number, dead or captured humans became seedlings and gradually increased the number, and the strength of the increasing monsters was stronger than they expected.

Right now, rumors are flowing to foreigners and people as if they are calming down by building a defense line, but if they go out on the offensive outside the wall, they will be defeated. To be honest, even holding on was a story that would be impossible if there were no big castles.

Even three of them have already collapsed.

“Damn it!!

“… There was a tip that Mountain Keeper Jack had already gone outside the borders. It means he was issued an international adventurer’s ID.”

“W-what?! I was wanted, but why did it happen like that!!”

“…Your Majesty. I am very sorry to hear this from you, but there was information I needed to tell you.”

“What! What else is left to be sad about?!!”

The king’s aides and retainers all began to get nervous the moment the prime minister opened his mouth.

It was a very difficult story to convey to the king the information gathered while covering the truth about this situation.

because.

“Evidence has been secured that the mountain keeper, after obtaining international adventurer status, became a gold adventurer for the day, and… when he arrived in a village, he shouted that his weekly wage was 800 cans.”

“…what?”

The moment this information is released, the person who deserves to be killed will not be the commoner mountain keeper Jack, but the aristocratic Baron Bagzak Tempura. Furthermore.

“And. In order to conceal the true meaning of this testimony, we also investigated the wages of producers in other districts… More than 50% of producers earning less than 10,000 cans a week. Even they are veterans of veterans, people over twenty. It was confirmed that they were not even aware of the fact that those who pay them were embezzling them along the way.”

“…what the hell, what the hell does that mean?”

Mountain keepers are more important than adventurers or guards. There are lands without villages, but where there are villages, there is no place without mountains.

People live together with nature, and if there are no humans to protect the mountain, it is only natural that humans will be swept away by the mightiness of nature and monsters.

Therefore, guards protect villages and cities, and mountain rangers protect the mountains and are like a wall that protects the outside of their home.

At least the king knew that, so he maintained the mountainkeeper system while giving them large compensation. however.

“…It is said that the commoner mountain keepers were very blind, and the nobles took advantage of that to embezzle compensation from their neighbors. Moreover, in the case of mountain manager Jack, his father died and he became a mountain ranger at the age of 12, raising his younger brother alone and serving as a mountain ranger for three years. , If you say he acted viciously because he was underpaid…”

“Through a certain route, he realized that his reward did not make sense, and so he acted accordingly. That is how it is judged. In fact, there are many testimonies that show that he was kind to most of the people he met on his way to the border city, and that he seemed happy with his younger brother. came.”

“…Well, then. The reason that caused this situation is…”

“…It is believed that this incident originated from the evil behavior of the residents of Poria Territory and Baron Bagzak Tempura.”

The king even stopped breathing and began to look quietly at the prime minister who had spoken to him.

Not long after that.

-thud!

“Bring them in. All the nobles who embezzled the mountain keepers’ money. Bring them to me.”

“Your Majesty. I know you’re angry, but the important thing now is to unite the nobles and stop the monster parade…”

“Prime Minister. I’m not just angry right now. I won’t say it twice. Bring everything, everything to me.”

The chancellor broke into a cold sweat when he saw the king, who was expressing a genuine sense of killing and anger, completely different from when Gil-gil was angry at the report that he had been wiped out.

The 13th King, Grand Ponia. He’s not a great man, but he’s not a dark man either.

If he had been a Myeonggun, he would have noticed in advance that this happened about the mountain keeper. However, he is also not a cancer soldier.

Mountain keepers, one of the pillars of the people’s life. Beings who abused themselves by taking advantage of the fact that they did not learn more than others.

Because he’s not a human who doesn’t know justice enough to leave them alone. Furthermore.

“…From now on, I’m going to the front line myself. All the nobles say that I personally issued an edict to send troops and bring them, and gather the mountain keepers they exploited to the front line. I apologize to them myself, and the country I will borrow their strength to save the crisis.”

“……”

“The answer is.”

The Chancellor was perplexed.

I don’t know if it was one or two people, but close to 50% were doing such a thing, and if all the nobles were executed here, wouldn’t the country be cut in half in the future? However, such calculations were quickly sorted out.

“I will follow your orders.”

It is not a problem that the country will be cut in half in the future, but the country will disappear right now.

It was not a difficult problem to decide on which scale to put the money sold on.

A snowball launched by one of the mountain keepers started to roll bigger than he expected.
